Survey Results Binder Not Readily Accessible: The facility failed to keep the most recent survey results in a place readily accessible to residents, family members, and legal representatives. A survey results binder was observed on a half wall near the receptionist's desk and activity area, but access was blocked by a table, a soda machine, and a large dining table, with the only other access point behind the receptionist's desk. Four residents at resident council said they did not know about the binder or where to find it, and the administrator stated the table had not been moved back after exercise activity.
A controlled med for a resident was stored in a small lockbox inside an unlocked refrigerator in the med room, and the lockbox was not secured to the refrigerator. An LPN confirmed the box contained 10 prefilled Lorazepam syringes, and stated nurses and CMAs on duty had access to the med room and refrigerator. The DON said they were unaware the container holding controlled meds needed to be permanently affixed and agreed the box was small and easy to conceal and carry away.
A resident with multiple medical conditions slid out of their wheelchair during transport due to a missing shoulder strap in the van. The transport team, including the AD and a CNA, were unable to lift the resident back into the wheelchair and drove back to the facility with the resident on the floor, following the DON's instructions. The incident revealed a deficiency in the facility's transportation safety protocols.
The facility failed to ensure proper hand hygiene and infection control practices during incontinent care and wound treatment. A CNA was observed not washing hands or using alcohol rub between tasks, and an LPN used a roll gauze that had fallen on the floor. These actions were contrary to the facility's policies, indicating a lapse in infection control protocols.
A facility failed to ensure a resident was free from unnecessary physical restraints. The resident, with multiple diagnoses affecting mobility, had a rollator walker seat placed under their recliner's leg rest, restricting movement. There was no documentation of an evaluation, physician's order, or consent form for the restraint. Both CNAs and the DON confirmed the resident's restricted movement, highlighting a failure to follow the facility's restraint policy.
Survey Results Binder Not Readily Accessible
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure the most recent survey results were posted in a place readily accessible to residents, family members, and legal representatives. On 07/23/25 at 10:52 a.m., the survey results binder was observed sitting on the ledge of a half wall between the receptionist's desk and the common room used for activities, with a small end table, a soda machine, and a large circular dinner table blocking access on one side and access on the other side only available from behind the receptionist's desk. During the resident council meeting at 10:46 a.m., all four residents present stated they did not know about the survey results binder or where to find it, though they said they would be interested in reading the results. At 10:54 a.m., the administrator stated someone had not moved the table back after the residents completed exercise activity at 10:00 a.m., that most activities were done in that area and the large circular table would need to be moved against the wall to provide enough space, and that residents could go behind the receptionist's desk to access the binder.
Controlled Medication Not Secured in Permanently Affixed Locked Container
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure a controlled medication was secured in a locked container that was permanently affixed to the building for Resident #14. During observation in the medication storage room, a small black lockbox containing controlled medications was found inside a refrigerator unit that did not have a lock on its door. The lockbox was approximately 7 inches square and 2 inches deep, and it could be removed from the refrigerator because it was not secured to the refrigerator by any means. Record review showed Resident #14 had 10 Lorazepam concentrate 2 mg/mL syringes available at the facility, with the word "Fridge" handwritten on the narcotic record. LPN #1 opened the lockbox and confirmed it contained the 10 prefilled Lorazepam syringes. LPN #1 stated the charge nurse on duty had keys to the lockbox, and that nurses and CMAs on duty had access to the medication room and refrigerator. The DON stated they were unaware that the container holding controlled medications needed to be permanently affixed and agreed the black lockbox was small and easy to conceal and carry away.
Resident Safety Compromised During Transport
Penalty
Summary
An Immediate Jeopardy (IJ) situation was identified at a facility due to a failure in ensuring proper transportation safety for a resident. The incident occurred when a resident, who had diagnoses including hemiplegia, hemiparesis, cerebral infarction, and cardiomyopathy, slid out of their wheelchair during a transport from the hospital to the facility. The transport driver had to abruptly brake, causing the resident to fall onto the floor of the transport van. The resident sustained a 3.5 cm skin tear to their left elbow as a result of the fall. The facility's Assistant Director (AD) and a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) were responsible for the transport. The AD stated that the resident's wheelchair was secured with four straps and a lap belt, but the shoulder strap was not functional. This lack of a shoulder strap contributed to the resident sliding out of the wheelchair. After the incident, the AD and CNA were unable to lift the resident back into the wheelchair and decided to drive back to the facility with the resident on the floor, following instructions from the Director of Nursing (DON) to make the resident comfortable and return to the facility. Observations and interviews revealed that the transport van lacked a shoulder strap, which was a critical component for securing the resident safely. The DON confirmed that staff were trained to use both lap belts and shoulder straps for safe transport, but in this case, the shoulder strap was missing. The incident highlighted a deficiency in the facility's transportation safety protocols, as the staff did not call 911 for assistance and instead transported the resident back to the facility without proper safety measures in place.
Inadequate Hand Hygiene and Infection Control Practices
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure proper hand hygiene practices were followed during incontinent care and wound treatment, as observed in several instances involving seven residents. The Hand Hygiene policy, dated April 28, 2022, and the Incontinent Care policy, dated July 21, 2022, both emphasize the importance of performing hand hygiene before and after providing care, applying and removing gloves, and handling soiled linens. However, these protocols were not adhered to by the staff. For instance, a CNA was observed touching residents' incontinent briefs with bare hands without washing hands or using alcohol rub. Additionally, the CNA did not change gloves or perform hand hygiene between tasks, such as adjusting bed controls and handling personal items after providing care. Furthermore, during a wound care procedure, an LPN continued to use a roll gauze that had been dropped on the floor, which was picked up by the CNA and handed back to the LPN. This action was contrary to infection control practices. The CNA admitted to not using alcohol rub due to personal discomfort and stated they washed hands at specific times, but not consistently between tasks or when checking briefs. These observations indicate a significant lapse in following established infection control protocols, potentially compromising resident safety.
Failure to Ensure Resident was Free from Unnecessary Physical Restraints
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that a resident was free from physical restraints that were not required to treat medical symptoms. The resident had diagnoses including difficulty in walking, abnormalities in gait and mobility, lack of coordination, mild intellectual disability, and arthropathy. Despite these conditions, there was no documentation of an evaluation for the restraint, a physician's order, or a restraint consent form. The resident was observed with a rollator walker seat placed underneath the recliner's leg rest, which restricted their movement. Both CNAs interviewed confirmed that the rollator walker was always kept at the end of the recliner and that the resident was unable to lower the recliner on their own, thus restricting their movement. The DON assessed the resident and found that the resident could only partially lower the recliner and had to climb over the armrest to go to the restroom. The facility's policy on physical restraints, dated 07/26/23, stated that physical restraints should not be used to limit resident mobility for staff convenience and required an evaluation, a physician's order, and a consent form before implementing a restraint. However, these procedures were not followed for the resident in question. The resident had a history of falls, including an incident where they fell in the shower and sustained injuries, and another fall where they scraped their right arm. Despite these incidents, the facility did not properly document or evaluate the need for the restraint, leading to the deficiency noted in the report.
